Subject: Re: inserted citation (in the footnote) does not match the citation format in the text core Author: Leanne (Mentor) Date: 09-22-2010 08:27 PM I suspect if the footnote is not matching what you think the citation should look like, the manuscript is being formated with a output style different from that showing in the Endnote Program.  See this thread with pictures, demonstrating the difference.

Again, the format of citations in the text core is OK. Only citations located in footnotes have an incorrect format.   -a-

Subject: Re: Insert different punctuation between multiple citations in one footnote (how to) Author: Leanne (Mentor) Date: 09-23-2010 01:42 PM simple, if you open the style you are using, and look at the Footnotes, templates option, at the top there is box to insert the character you want between multiple citations.  See the attached image where the Chicago style uses a semi-colon.

Subject: Re: Insert different punctuation between multiple citations in one footnote (how to) Author: maryp (Visitor) Date: 09-23-2010 02:01 PM Thanks but for some weird reason I can't scroll/click onto and edit the Style for citations, bibliography, footnotes, or figures and tables, only the single items listed above them. I have never been able to do this (using X2) - how can I activate this?

Subject: Re: Insert different punctuation between multiple citations in one footnote (how to) Author: Leanne (Mentor) Date: 09-23-2010 02:26 PM So, in endnote (not Endnote Web), you choose Edit>Output Styles>edit "the stylename you want to alter".  Then, does it show the options with a plus in front of them, or are the lists expanded?  If not expanded, click on the Plus sign, and you should see the expanded list for the individual item, in this case in front of  "Footnotes".  Then you just click on the word "template"  and you should see a similar listing to the image I attatched.    Make your change to the Multiple Citation separator and tthen ensure you save it to a new name.  In your document, format bibliography (or format paper in some versions), and change the style to your new name and click okay (ensuring that on the third tab, CWYW is enabled, if you want it automatically formatted as you write).    If that isn't working there must be something wrong with the installation and should should call Tech Support. There is a link on that page that takes you to all the tech support numbers in different countries.

Subject: Re: inserted citation (in the footnote) does not match the citation format in the text core Author: Leanne (Mentor) Date: 09-23-2010 02:29 PM Oh, sorry.  Have you then looked at the settings for footnotes for your chosen style? There is a drop-down option at the top of the footnotes template  to use one of three options.  Same as Bibliography, Same as Citation or Using the footnot format defined in the footnote templates.  I suspect you need to change that.

Subject: Re: Insert different punctuation between multiple citations in one footnote (how to) Author: Leanne (Mentor) Date: 09-23-2010 02:31 PM P.S. In the meantime, you could attach your style here and one of us other users could tweak it for you, if that would help?

Subject: Re: inserted citation (in the footnote) does not match the citation format in the text core Author: Leanne (Mentor) Date: 09-23-2010 03:53 PM To edit a style: From the Edit menu, choose Output Styles and then Open Style Manager. Select the file to edit and click Edit. The most recently used style (or two) can also be opened by selecting Output Styles from the Edit menu, and choosing Edit <style>.Edit>Output Style>.      See image attached with the drop-down list for the options I mentioned.

Subject: Re: Insert different punctuation between multiple citations in one footnote (how to) Author: maryp (Visitor) Date: 09-23-2010 04:25 PM There are no plus signs and the lsist are not expanded... sounds like I need tech support then. Meanwhile, how do I attach the style and have you tweak it for me? Do I need to find the style system file within Endnote, or is there another way?

Subject: Re: Insert different punctuation between multiple citations in one footnote (how to) Author: maryp (Visitor) Date: 09-24-2010 07:20 AM I found the style files in Applications, Endnote, but my modified style file was not there, only the original one it was based on. My style appears in the list and I use it all the time, so I'm mystified... So then I went back to the original style and experimented to see if I could edit that, and I could. I can't recall how I created my style it was so long ago, but that seems to be the problem area. What is the coreect way to create my own output style by modifying another? If I do it again perhaps I will be able to edit it.
